One thing is to knock down drones, and another very different and dangerous Russian airplanes. The second option is winning too many followers

by

The repeated incursions Russian aerials in NATO territory They have triggered a diplomatic and military escalation that places the Atlantic Alliance against one of its greatest dilemmas since the beginning of the war in Ukraine. First They were dronesand then several MIG-31 fighters next to an IL-20M recognition plane in the Baltic without flight plan. The perception, increasingly widespread in Europe, is very dangerous: the Kremlin seeks to test The allied disposition to respond firmly. The internal debate. They remembered In politician that incidents have caused urgent consultations Under article 4 of the North Atlantic Treaty, a rarely invoked mechanism that reflects the seriousness of the situation. Estonios, Poles and Czechs have claimed Hard responsesincluding the possibility of demolishing Russian aircraft in future violations. The Czech President Peta Pavel, former NATO Military High Command, affirmed that Moscow must face “military consequences.” In Tallin, Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna insisted in which to defend the sky of Estonia is equivalent to defending that of the entire alliance. Instead, figures such as German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni They alert the risk To fall into the “climbing trap” lying by Putin, aware that a demolition could be interpreted as Casus Belli. Parallel messages. The president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, adopted An unusually overwhelming tone When declaring That “every centimeter of the territory” must be protected and that, after clear warnings, the option of folding an intruder plane “is on the table.” His words resonated With Trump’sthat in the UN General Assembly he affirmed that the “yes” allies should shoot against Russian airplanes if they enter their airspace. The support of the US President was held in Warsaw, where Minister Radosław Sikorski He replied with a laconic “Roger That”. The coincidence of speeches between Brussels and Washington (although von der Leyen has no direct military authority) transmits to Moscow that there is an emerging consensus in favor of harden the rules of the game. A 12 -minute pulse. The most symbolic case was the starring By three mig-31 Russians intercepted by two Italian F-35 in Estonia. During more than ten minutesRussian fighters remained within NATO airspace, an unprecedented duration. The Italians performed the standard interception maneuvers and, surprisingly, the Russian pilots responded With a friendly gesturegreeting from the cabin. Although the meeting concluded without shots, in Tallin and in Brussels a immediate debate: Why didn’t it acted with the same forcefulness as Türkiye in 2015When did a Russian plane tear down in just 17 seconds after a border rape? The difference illustrates the current caution of NATO, trapped between the need to show determination and the fear of an incident that disappoints an uncontrollable escalation. Hybrid ambiguity. The Russian authorities They have denied Deliberate violations and attribute incidents to errors, but at the same time suggest that they respond to Ukrainian attacks in Crimea, which is equivalent to accusing NATO of direct complicity. European diplomats who met with Kremlin say that the Russian delegation He took exhaustive noteswhich reinforces the impression that Moscow uses these incursions as calculated pressure tools. Experts like the Lithuanian president Gypsyėda They point that Russia “is testing our preparation and our solidarity.” In this sense, aerial incursions are part of a hybrid repertoire that includes espionage, cyber attacks, disinformation campaigns and symbolic maneuvers in the Baltic borders, such as balloons and buoys displaced in border rivers. The strategic dilemma. NATO has reinforced surveillance with the operation Eastern Sentry and maintains Eurofighter, F-16 and F-35 fighters deployed in the region, but still lacks clear and homogeneous confrontation rules. The ultimate decision to shoot falls to governments nationals that provide airplanes, which generates a mosaic of interpretations and possible “caveats” that could leave countries as Estonia in vulnerable situation. Meanwhile, Tallin has decided to increase its military expenditure to an average 5.4% of GDP Annual until 2029, a record figure in the alliance, although without acquiring its own fighters, which maintains the dependence of the ally air coverage. On the edge of the red line. In short, the Crossing speeches reflects a paradox: while Voices increase In favor of demolition as immediate response to airspace violations, other leaders remember that Putin could be looking for that incident to legitimize a victimization and victimization narrative Sow divisions internal in NATO. If you want, the situation recalls that the defense of the European sky is no longer a mere exercise of routine interceptions, but A critical front of the ongoing hybrid war. At stake, in addition, there is not only the security of Estonia or Poland, but the credibility of the alliance as guarantor that every centimeter of its territory, in the words of Von der Leyen itself, will continue being inviolable.

Gabrielle is at the doors

by

He Hurricane Gabrielle It has become what the NHC (National Hurricane Center), the US agency dedicated to the surveillance of tropical storms, calls a post-tropical cyclone. Right now the storm The Azores Archipelago crossesbut the models indicate that their arrival to the continent will be through the Iberian Peninsula. Any Sunday. Meteorological forecasts indicate that former Gabrielle The Peninsula will arrive on Sundaytouching land in Portugal. Of course, its effects could begin to notice hours before this arrival, even during the Saturday afternoon. As explained by the State Meteorology Agency (Aemet), Gabrielle will already become an extropest storm. For now, uncertainty prevails regarding how the arrival of the storm will be, but we can expect instability to affect a good part of the Southwest Peninsular during the weekend. Gabrielle’s itinerary. Gabrielle began his journey as a tropical storm in the central area of ​​the Atlantic and took northwest direction until he approached Bermuda. Before reaching the archipelago, the storm intensified until reaching the hurricane category, and then Make a turn of about 90º and put towards the northwest and then in the direction of the Peninsula. The models indicate that Gabrielle’s most likely route will take the storm to touch the ground near Lisbon During the early hours of Sunday. The route would continue to head southeast, in the direction of the Gulf of Cádiz. “High uncertainty. ” As Aemet points out, there is a “high uncertainty” not only with respect to the trace of the storm, also with respect to its possible evolution. The agency for now has issued some yellow notices by risk of rains in Western Andalusia, where accumulated 30 mm are expected in six hours. You can expect the notices to change as the information will be more accurate. What they tell us Aemet’s forecasts We can expect abundant cloudiness. The agency indicates that the possibility of rainfall during Sunday will extend throughout practically the entire territory, although it is in the southwest (also in the Cantabrian and part of the Mediterranean coast) where they are more likely. With respect to the winds, large gales are not expected for now due to the weakening of the cyclone. Aemet speaks of “moderate winds in the northwest coastlines, with intervals of strong and Possible very strong gustsoccasionally moderate in the Gulf of Cádiz, Balearic Islands and areas of the Peninsular Northwest Third ”. Behind Gabrielle, Humberto. While we leave doubts about what Gabrielle will hold, the tropical storm Humberto could take a similar route. For now this formation advances west through the waters of the Atlantic. However, forecasts indicate that the storm will turn north before touching land in North America. This could put Humberto on the course of the east towards the second half of next week. There is still much for it for what we will have to wait to know the evolution of this potential hurricane and the real possibilities that their remnants reach us as those of Gabrielle are.

The danger of using AI chatbots for everything is real: MIT has discovered the “cognitive debt”

by

A MIT study He has shown that chatgpt and similar tools generate what they call “cognitive debt”: students who resort to them for total use end up writing better, but thinking worse. Why is it important. The study contradicts the belief that AI is like a calculator: a simple support that frees us for more complex reasoning. Actually, these tools can atrophy the brain connections that build critical thinking. The facts. 54 university students have spent months writing essays, divided into three groups: Grupo LLM, which used Chatgpt. Search motor group, which used Google. And group Solo-Cerebro, without external tools. The researchers measured their neuronal activity with electroencephalograms and the results have been overwhelming: those who used a neuronal connectivity systematically lower in all frequency bands. Compared to the group that only used its brain, there was a lower activation in key networks that connect parietal, temporal and frontal regions, fundamental for attention, memory and semantic processing. In Xataka 81% of interviewers suspected the traps with AI in interviews: 31% have confirmed it without a doubt and they have put a brake The contrast. The essays generated with AI received better notes, both from teachers and evaluating algorithms. But their authors remembered worse what they had written minutes before and felt a minor authorship about their texts. When they forced the usual users to write without help, their brain patterns showed that dependence on external support. They had lost ability to reactivate the necessary neural networks to write independently. How to walk without support after years doing it with crutches. Yes, but. The students who learned to write without ia and then used it for the first time maintained their engagement neuronal They even showed better memory and reactivation of broad brain areas. The key difference: You need to know how to think before you can think with machines. In perspective. This pattern replicates what we see in other professions: The subway driver who feels alienated because the train drives alone. Translators turned into machine editors. 3D creatives that only retouch what the AI ​​generates. {“Videid”: “X9R6K72”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “Chatgpt Pulse”, “Tag”: “Technology”, “Duration”: “67”} The threat. The study also analyzed university students who already had developed writing skills. The effects could be more severe in adolescents who are still building these cognitive abilities. As a Dartmouth teacher said: we run the risk of creating “an educated generation with AI shortcuts” that lacks independent thinking skills. And now what. The sequence matters more than technology. First, you learn to think. Then, you learn to think with machines. The brain needs to build those Neuronal highways before being able to delegate selectively in AI. The study concludes that educational interventions should “combine the assistance of AI tools with learning phases without tools” to optimize both immediate skill and long -term neuronal development.

This is the new treatment approved in the USA

by

Age usually takes its toll and presbyopia is one of the main factors responsible for it. Now a few drops can change this. Approved in the US. The drug regulatory agency in the United States, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration), approved a few weeks ago A new treatment against presound. It is a solution for ophthalmic use, a few eye drops, aceclidin, which applied daily can help reduce the effects of this disorder for about ten hours. A degenerative disorder. The presbyopy is an ocular disorder associated with aging. Over time, our eyes gradually lose their ability to focus close objects, which hinders some of the tasks of our day to day, such as reading. The presbyopy It usually begins to demonstrate between the age of 40 and 45, although its progress usually touches the roof when we turn 65. Today there are different tools to fight the presbyce, which include the use of lenses or surgery. Acechlidin. The treatment is based on aceclidin, a compound that had already been proposed in ocular health In other contexts, such as the treatment of some types of glaucoma. The compound acts by contracting the Iris sphincter musclethe person in charge of contracting the pupil, and does so, according to the developers of the new treatment, with a “minimum” stimulation of the ciliary muscle, another eye muscle, is located outside the Iris. What the treatment is achieved is a stenopic effect by making the pupil contract below the two millimeters. This effect is the one that works wings cameras Pinhole Or Stenopic, which gives them a wide focal range, even losing sharpness as a consequence of diffraction. Clinical trials. According to They explain from Lenz Therapeuticsthe company responsible for the new treatment, the approval of the FDA comes after a series of clinical trials, controlled and randomized double -blind studies, the Clarity 1, 2 and 3 trials. Can we check it? For now the treatment is approved in the United States but not in the European Union. In fact, despite having been approved in the United States, the drug is not yet available in the North American country: the responsible pharmaceutical company has put October as the month of launching the new drug.

France has tried by all means that CAF does not take “the contract of the century” of the Belgian trains. There is good news

by

The contract continues. That is what the Belgian responsible for one of the country’s greatest tenders have said. The so -called “Century Contract” will therefore fall on CAF, the great Spanish rail giant. The Spanish company will be in charge of providing trains to the “Belgian Renfe”. Refused. The State Council of Belgium has spoken. And what has decided is that it rejects the last resort that Alstom had presented in the award contest to provide the CNS (the Belgian Renfe) of a huge battery of trains to modernize much of the fleet. In The mail They detail that the Belgian State Council had already rejected a resource for Siemens last week and now has been dismissed that of Alstom. The process has been especially long and complex with numerous resources presented, comings and goings and reconfirmations. “The contract of the century”. Given the enormous volume of money that will move this contract, it does not seem that the famous denomination of “the contract of the century” is left great. To start, the investment will be 1,695 million euros but if the deadlines and volume of deliveries are met, CAF could receive up to 3.4 billion euros. The amount will be paid for The supply of 500 trains Automotores including three car models with battery hybrid propulsion that will have the task of replacing the old diesel locomotives in those roads that have not yet been electrified. With the rejection of the latest resources, it only remains to negotiate the last details and sign the greatest contract in the history of CAF. Long and complex. Getting with this contract has not been simple for the Spanish company. At the beginning of the year, Alstom and Siemens resorted to the award of CAF to CAF, claiming that the motivations for it were not transparent enough. In April, a Belgian court recommended suspending the contest. During that time, Alstom took the opportunity to press by pointing out that his proposal was better because they have a plant on Belgian soil, emphasizing that the decision to take out this contract would harm the citizens themselves because they were not betting on local employment as a decisive factor. The process, however, continued. However, CAF has had to wait for the Belgian authorities to definitely reject the resource of Siemens and a second resource by emergency presented by Alstom, who insisted again on a supposed lack of transparency. Israel. During the last bars of all this bureaucratic framework, various voices rose to question the award of CAF. They defended that a company that was associated with the Israeli Shapir could not be hired to build and expand the red and green lines of the Light Jerusalem Rail. The project is problematic because it will be built on illegal Israeli settlements. That has caused the Basque company to have been indicated in an official UN report as one of the companies that take revenues from the country’s antipalestine policy. They specify that with this type of works these illegal settlements are helped. 500 million euros. That is what is estimated to take coffee If the Israeli project goes ahead. This is valued at 1.8 billion euros to lift 27 kilometers of roads and 50 new stations. With them we want to connect the West Bank settlements with those of West Jerusalem. The business for CAF does not remain alone in the construction of this light meter. It is also about to decide when it will participate in the management of the lines. At the moment, it is being assessed that its involvement is maintained between 15 and 25 years once between operation. CAF shields that the award of the contract is prior to the Israeli invasion of Palestine. Do not get into. At least that is what they say from SCNB. Appealed by up to four associations that rejected that CAF received this contest for its involvement with the project in the West Bank and Jerusalem, the Belgian operator has responded that it cannot “determine the foreign or commercial policy of the companies involved,” they collect in The mail. Its position is contrary to other companies in the sector. The Norwegian sovereign fund, for example, has retired its investments in Shapir (the partner of CAF in the Israeli project) for the genocide committed in Gaza and the Manager Storeband also took CA from its portfolio for its involvement. The Catalan company Comsa was also part of the consortium that had gained the award of the blue line of the tram to Jerusalem but In 2024 he retired from the project and The Basque Siner announced that it will not serve steel to Israeli companies.

fighters, tanks and frigates will be bought, but not to the US

If the question is how the Rearme in Europethe answer right now has taken an unexpected turn. In the summer we count that the old continent had realized that he should start on the roads And that, if necessary, could find a problem derived from industries that compete for the same gears: cars and trains. However, what there were few doubts was that the United States was waiting to start signing contracts. Until a plan B has appeared. The strategic turn of Germany. Yes, Germany has decided to undertake an ambitious rearme program valued in More than 80,000 million of euros, which will mark a deep change in the industrial balance of defense in Europe. According to documents obtained by politicianBerlin plans to sign 154 contracts of great size between September 2025 and December 2026, modernizing all branches of its armed forces. Without American help. However, if the German plan surprises something is because it practically seeks Washington do without. Documents talk about just 8% Of those acquisitions will go to the American industry, in contrast to Germany’s role as one of Washington’s main clients in recent years. If in 2023 Berlin came to buy almost 14,000 million Of dollars in American military material, now he chooses to reinforce the European industrial base. In fact, the largest budgeted item is for the program of F-127 frigatesdesigned by the German TKMS, with an estimated cost of 26,000 million euros. He Eurofighter Tranche 5the vehicles Rheinmetall Boxer, a new wheel destroyer, the modernization of the missile of Taurus cruise or the commitment to national air defense systems Like the Iris-T They complete the portrait of a strategy that prioritizes European industrial autonomy against transatlantic agency. Eurofighter Tranche 5 The transatlantic balance. This reorientation clashes with the Trump wisheswhat after seal an agreement Commercial with Ursula von der Leyen proclaimed that the EU would buy “hundreds of billions” in American weapons. But in Europe decisions are national, not Brussels, and Berlin sends an unequivocal sign that the financial muscle will turn into the continental industry. The purchase Patriot Americans and some complementary missiles will barely reach 6,800 million of euros, while most of the resources will go to European programs, even to problematic projects Like Eurodronethat despite delays and cost overheads receives additional funds. In other words, Germany thus consolidates its role as the locomotive of the European rearme, not only modernizing its army but also marking the way to follow for the whole of the Union. Germany as leader of the rearme. In parallel to his own plan, Berlin has presented to Brussels a proposal of continental scope, collected in a leaked document For the Financial Times. There he claims to become the engine of the European response to the Russian threat, promoting the creation of “collective capacities coalitions”: groups of countries that develop and acquire weapons systems in priority areas such as anti -aircraft defense. Germany claims to be ready to assume leadership and asks that the projects focus especially on protect the eastern flank of the EU, today the most exposed area against Moscow. To achieve this, he proposes that the European Defense Agency become the central coordination and “pairing” platform of needs, with all governments forced to share data to identify deficiencies and avoid duplication. Opening towards Ukraine and tensions. The German plan has a significant political nuance: unlike Paris, which defends a strict European industrial protectionism, Berlin wants these projects are open to Ukraine Already third eligible countries, reinforcing the integration of kyiv into the Western Defense Architecture. It is, therefore, a clear pulse with France, but also a wink to Eastern Europe, which demands an agile and effective rearma Before the Russian threat. At the same time, Germany asks for soften the rules of state and competition aid, so that industries can increase their production production quickly in case of conflict, even with some deregulation that allows responding to a “state of defense” of emergency. The money debate. In the financial field, Berlin frontally rejects the idea of ​​mutualizing European debt, as they demand South countriesand bets on using existing instruments: A loan scheme for 150,000 million euros, a subsidy program of 1.5 billion still in negotiation and the contributions of national budgets. This ensures that each country maintains its own fiscal responsibility while driving common rearmament. The strategic horizon. If you want also, Germany, which until recently was criticized for its lukewarm and Russian energy dependenceit seems to be facing a radical turn that now positions it as the center of gravity of the European rearma. Your internal plan of 83,000 million of euros, together with his aspiration of Lead coordination EU armed, draw a panorama in which Berlin seeks so much to reinforce his Bundeswehr how to forge a continental industrial base that can sustain European defense Without depending of Washington’s fluctuations. The message, a priori, seems clear: while the war in Ukraine extends and Russia remains the main threat, Germany aims to be the country that not only rearms its army, but marks the pattern of the rest of Europe as a whole.

The portable Xbox is already priced. And it is a reflection of its power

by

Nintendo had his laptop, Sony too and Xbox was left out, away from that world. After years supporting Rumors about a portable Xboxit was a few months ago when Microsoft confirmed that it would enter that segment by Asus’s hand with the Rog Xbox Ally. Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck They showed that the technology was ready and what Microsoft will do is package the most powerful processors to have An experience of desktop, but in the palm of the hand. The price to be paid is literally the price of Robx Xbox Ally. Freest power. Microsoft has kept the price of its portable Xbox to practically the last minute. After the first details, andn Gamescom revealed the launch date and some more technical characteristics. It will be on October 16 when both the Rog Xbox Ally and an even more powerful version are launched: the Rog Xbox Ally X. Both by AMD and with specifications that promise a lot in being able to execute the most powerful games with a good quality: Rog Xbox Ally X Rog Xbox Ally System Windows 11 custom Windows 11 custom Processor AMD Ryzen Ai Z2 Extreme AMD Ryzen Z2 Memory 24 GB LPDDR5X at 8000 MHz 16 GB LPDDR5X at 6400 MHz Storage 1 TB M.2 2280 What can we change 512 GB M.2 2280 What can we change Screen IPS 7 -inch Panel FullHD resolution Relationship 16: 9 120 Hz of refresh and vrr GORILLA GLASS VICTUS protection Anti -reflex screen IPS 7 -inch Panel FullHD resolution Relationship 16: 9 120 Hz of refresh and vrr GORILLA GLASS VICTUS protection Anti -reflex screen Ports USB 4 Type-C USB 3.2 Type-C MicroSD UHS-II Jack of headphones 2 x USB 3.2 Type-C MicroSD UHS-II Jack of headphones Connectivity Wi-Fi 6e Bluetooth 5.4 Wi-Fi 6e Bluetooth 5.4 Dimensions and weight 290.8 x 121.5 x 50.07 mm 715 grams 290.8 x 121.5 x 50.07 mm 670 grams Burden 80 Wh 60 Wh The hot price potato. The problem is that, having those characteristics on the table, there was a great doubt: how much it would cost. Examples such as the Lenovo Legion Go or ROG Ally itself were already seen that the power is paid, and having that Ryzen Z2 Extreme with 1 TB of storage and 24 GB of RAM was not going to be cheap. Now, Microsoft resolved all doubts announcing the prices of its portable Xbox: Rog Xbox Ally – 599 euros. Rog Xbox Ally X – 899 euros. Hopeful. Both can already book on the Microsoft website And, beyond gross power, they are machines with some characteristics taken directly from Steam Deck that give good ‘vibrations’ on the path that Microsoft wants to take with these portable consoles with Windows, also called consolidated PC. To start, it is compatible with the Xbox platform and the game services in the NUVE and ‘Cross Play’, but it does not close to Microsoft: we can install other stores such as Steam, GOG or Epic Games. Although it uses a modified Windows version to consume less resources, it remains Windows, which means at the opening level. On the other hand, Steam Deck takes the verification of the games. It is a label that tells us if the game is optimized for the machine, so we will only have to install and start playing, or if we will have to make some changes in their adjustments to have a better experience. Context. As always happens with these devices, the perception of the price of the Rog Xbox Ally X depends on the user. Although 899 euros are many euros, especially taking into account newly launched machines such as Nintendo Switch 2 Or a Steam Deck that, with years behind him, continues to remain well, the current context must be taken into account. And there is no need to go too far to see what Both Microsoft and Sony are uploading the prices of their consoles launched in 2020 periodically. Both reached 500 euros and now series x part of $ 649 (The climb, for the moment, in the US) With the 2 TB model of storage for $ 799. In the end, it is each player’s decision, but it is evident that the versatility that a Consolidated PC It is a very important asset, although if you want maximum power, we are already dangerously close to 1,000 euros. And, precisely, in Europe we can find a song in our teeth, since the price of the Rog Xbox Ally X in the United States is … $ 1,000.

The construction is robust but you have to dress it with walls and a roof that must be up to it. If we talk about design, the Japanese seem They have succeeded. If you look good, you can find the similarities between the Electric Renault 5 and the new Nissan Micra since, in reality, they are the same car with different skins. However, they have managed to hide the hard points of the car enough to hide the resemblance. Nissan has opted for more futuristic identity signs and nothing attached to the past. Its front and rear optical groups circulates and matches are distinctive and make clear to the first view that we are facing the Japanese electric and not a copy of the Renault 5. Of course, of course, We are not facing the case of Renault Captur and the Mitsubishi Asx. Inside the thing changes. The splash furniture is the same and the differences are more subtle. In fact, they are cornered to the color and finished game. To differentiate them, we do not have tapestry seats that mimic the classic H as it did in the Five or the plastic backlighted with the name of the French car. Of course, they keep the double screen (twin 10.1 inches or combined with a 7.1 -inch instrument box in the input ranges) under the same frame and turned towards the driver. The lower controls, the steering wheel, the aerators and the central space between the front seats is traced to the Renault model. The infotainment system, of course, is moved by Android Automotive but has its own interface. That is, take advantage of Google’s navigation services but if we want we can use Android Auto and Apple Carplay to replicate our mobile phones. As for technical capabilities, the new Nissan Micra arrives with two combinations of engines and batteries. The 40 KWH option (319 kilometers approved) comes with 122 hp engine. The one of 52 kWh (419 kilometers approved) is coupled with 150 hp engine. If you want to see the real experience of autonomy with this last option in the case of Renault 5, You can check it with this link. As for loading systems, the Nissan Micra can recharge to a maximum of 100 kW with its smaller battery while the lowest capacity remains in 80 kWh. That implies that moving from 10 to 80% of it forces to stop for about 30 minutes. If we talk about alternating current, the car can load a maximum of 11 kW and have V2L function, so it can supply electricity to other devices. Regarding his French brother, the Nissan Micra differs in that he has three levels of regeneration in the braking and one of them is One pedala function that was not available in the first versions of the electric R5 and that is especially useful in the city. Finally, with respect to driver’s aid, Nissan Micra is equipped with a complete package in which we find systems such as lane maintenance, adaptive cruise control or parking aids.

Jaén revives his mining past for energy transition

by

Spain reappears on the board of critical minerals In full geopolitical struggle Between the United States and China. The Government has published in the BOE The definitive admission of the “Menipe” research permit, which will allow the Australian company Osmond Resources – through its local subsidiary Green Mineral Resources SL – to explore strategic resources in the province of Jaén. Opening the way. The project Orion EU Critical Minerals Project It will cover a total 756 grids (228 km²) among the municipalities of Aldeaquemada, Santisteban del Puerto, Castellar and Montizón. According to the company itselfthe work will focus on a fossilized paleoplace with high heavy mineral content. Surface trials would have revealed “unusually high” concentrations: more than 15% in rutilo and about 10% in Circón, in addition to significant levels of rare earths (neodymium, proseodimium and disposium), essential elements to manufacture permanent magnets used in wind turbines, electric cars and batteries. A long process. It is not to arrive and kiss the saint. According to the technical memory of the PI “Orion”, the investigation is conceived as a three -year plan divided into progressive phases. During the first exercise it is planned to collect historical information, develop geological cartography at 1: 10,000 scale, perform aerial geophysical prospects and take between 80 and 90 samples in streams, in addition to running up to five surveys with witness in areas such as Avellanar. In a second stage, the works will focus on surface geophysics – electrical and magnetotheluric toomography – on the development of a hydrogeological model and on another ten additional polls. Finally, a technical-economic evaluation of the set of results is made, with the possibility of extension if the deadlines were insufficient. The technical document describes mineralized layers between 0.3 and 4 meters (average of 2.5 m), rich in zircon, rutilo, ilmenite and monacite. Besides, According to Osmond Resourcesthe first drilling program includes 15 polls in Avellanar and other objective zones. The company claims to have a listing machine ready and plans to incorporate more teams in October of this year, When the risk of fire goes down. Very quoted materials. The minerals under investigation are in the European list of critical and strategic raw materials. Rare earths such as neodymium or disposium are essential to manufacture permanent magnets used in wind turbines, electric cars and batteries. Rutilo is used in pigments and alloys. The zircon and hafnio have applications in ceramics and nuclear reactors. According to the European Commissionthe new Critical RAW Materials Act set by 2030 that at least 10% of critical subjects are extracted in community territory, 40% are processed in the EU and 25% is recycledwith the aim of reducing the dependence of a single country supplier to a maximum of 65%. Within that framework, projects such as Jaén fit fully into the industrial autonomy strategy of the block. An hUb Mining in boom? The chosen area is not new to mining. The region of Linares – La Carolina was, During the nineteenth and twentieth centuriesone of the most important leading districts in Europe. In the 50s and 60s even Torio and Uranium were sought, without success. Today, that past resurfaces with new protagonists. In addition, Jaén’s case is not isolated. The community concentrates near the 90% of the value of national metal mining and is reactivating dozens of research permits. Even, In Xatakawe have talked about “El Dorado Andaluz”, a region where the global demand for strategic metals and the European bet for new supply chains are crossed. It is not an exploitation license. For the moment. The current permit only authorizes investigation and the Board opened a period of public allegations in the Environmental Processing of Pi “Orion”and it is foreseeable that objections linked to water and biodiversity arise. In Jaén, social sensitivity towards energy projects has already been evident: the massive installation of solar plants has reached courts To stop different photovoltaic projects. Experience in other territories also invites caution. In Matamulas (Ciudad Real), the strong neighborhood and environmental response paralyzed rare earth despite the high geological potential. Jaén can investigate. If the polls confirm the potential and if the project exceeds environmental and social tests, Andalusia could become the European test bank for a new mining of critical minerals. Time will say if Jaén goes from being a line in the BOE to a key actor in Europe’s mineral autonomy.
